– victim was stabbed 16 times
The wounds that trainee teacher, Luciana Bhagwandin, sustained appear to reflect the personality of the man who friends say stalked, threatened and finally abducted her last week Friday.
Police sources confirmed that Wednesday’s post mortem revealed that the 22-year-old was stabbed some 16 times. The injuries included two stab wounds to the throat and four to the abdomen.
The victim’s body also bore scratches.
“This is someone who most likely knew the victim and was angry with her,” a source told Kaieteur News yesterday.
Friends of the slain woman stated that she was abducted by the owner of a dark-coloured car in the vicinity of Ogle, East Coast Demerara.
It is believed that the individual is the same man with whom Bhagwandin had started a relationship last August.
Some of the slain woman’s colleagues had described the individual as being “obsessive.”
They stated that Bhagwandin had told them that the suspect had wanted her to leave her husband, and had repeatedly threatened to kill the trainee teacher and her spouse. She claimed he had once placed a gun to her head.
Bhagwandin had told relatives that the man claimed to work at an Embassy.
According to some colleagues, Bhagwandin had told them that the man had also claimed to hold some senior security post.
Bhagwandin was found dead around 09:00 hrs on Sunday in Back Street, Harlem, which is flanked by rice-fields. Her body bore several stab wounds.
She was clad in a pair of blue three-quarter pants, white sleeveless top, blue and white brassiere and a pair of brown slippers.
A taxi driver and three others were detained but have since been released.
